You mentioned the bear not being able to figure out what the flashlight was, well bears are extremely smart. And this bear knew what that flashlight was, he was actually looking to see what size batteries the flashlight takes.
Tim: “It feels no pain” Bear in the background: “on back, rolling around in agony” Edit: i wanna clarify that i am a hunter myself, iv shot plenty of deer in the last few years. Im not bitching about how the guy killed it, only pointing out that he was clearly wrong when he said that it felt no pain.
It doesn't always mean they aren't in pain. In fact my dad shot a antelope with his bow and he didn't start running until he saw my dad. The arrow went right through him.
F_ck I wish I'd never found this, what a complete PRICK! I'd love to re-write the vid at 4:44 Mins... And the poxy music, someone should steal more than his DONUTS
That's what death throws are. Even once dead, muscles still spasm. Happens to many animals and even humans quite often. Muscles spasm for as long as chemical energy persist in the muscles
@@pogglypuff5170 no but any time a razer cut my skin it didn't feel good so idk, getting shot/stabbed don't sound like it would feel getting a massage, also how tf you gonna think getting a razor through your heart isn't painful? You are a very silly person and you need to stop being stupid before you get yourself killed
Let's be real. This thing died choking on its own blood. Maybe that's considered relatively humane. But I feel using words like "painless" are doing a disservice to what happened to this creature. This wasn't painless. This was an agonized bear gasping for air until it slipped from existence. Just own it, don't downplay the damage. edit: To clarify, as people keep posting... I'm not condemning hunters. I'm not even condemning this hunter, this hunting style, or this particular blowdart kill. My point of contention rests on the dishonest language used to describe what happened here. He described it as "painless". He's downplaying the suffering of an animal that has an identical nervous system to us. I just want him to own the reality of the situation. I'm not qualified to talk about what constituties an ethical or unethical kill. I just want us to use honest language. Nothing more, nothing less.
@@brathahn5701 ?? its facts, the animal was dead when it dropped down and didnt move for the first time. Everything that happens after that are the muscles still being alive and moving, not the animal itself

@@eliasheymann1837 No, it was still in the throes of dying, quite clearly. Rigor mortis doesn't do that and doesn't set in, in three minutes. Not that it is a big deal, I think you have missed the humour in the original post.
A friend was a homicide investigator and showed me documentation of a man killed by a paper clip that was thrust under his ribs and just nicked the tip of his heart.
I have built, shot, and hunted with blowguns for fifty years. I do not hunt big game, either with a blowgun or any other weapon. Mostly I target shoot and take the occasional rabbit or squirrel for the pot. I also built and designed a blowgun to shoot and retrieve bullfrogs. (My favorite game. Yum!) But I can say without fear of contradiction that a well-designed blowgun and dart will kill anything a .22 short round will kill, in about the same amount of time and circumstances. As a word of caution, I had a cousin who accidentally shot and killed himself with a .22 short. That said, I don't like any of the commercial guns or darts. They all have some pretty grave limitations. My Cherokee ancestors would have chuckled at them. Please, NEVER SHOOT ANYTHING LIVING WITH ONE OF THOSE SMALL BORE WIRE DART 'HAT-PIN' GUNS. They are for target shooting only.
Your life of comfort and convenience comes because you pay other people to kill animals for you in horrific factory farm conditions. You should step outside your bubble some time and learn more about the world.
you all are dense....the nervous system literally continues to have signals sent through the body, they are just tremors..the bear is already dead. The same thing happens when humans are killed, you can shoot a person with many killing shots and their body will keep on moving for a few minutes.
Yes a pinch of pain since you probably may have experienced a cut on your hand without you noticing due to adreline rush and later on felt a ting. That bear was surprised of the noise the blowgun made and that triggered the adrelaline making him jump and feel only a little bit of pain.
@Ed B. Correction correction: smarter animal with tools kills other animal without tools. If a black bear saw you in the wilderness and was hungry enough to chase you down and feast on your face, you think the bear folks would get on their BearTube and mourn your death? Doubt it. Be soft somewhere else, prey.
It died within seconds man, the only kinda shot that will kill the bear immediately is a headshot in just the right place and a spear aint gonna do that, but if he does use a gun then that will scare away most other animals within miles. for someone who has training and knows where to hit, it is quite an ethical weapon
@@dinokingtyIf you shoot a bear you don’t need to hunt any other animals. So it isn’t an issue if they run away because of the noise. A shot in the head is way more ethical than a spear in the chest. I think this guy just want to find new “funny” ways to kill animals and lies to us and to himself in order to not seem a psychopath
@@ProfUPS Could've been spooked from the noise. For wounds that severe, its common for the body to "turn off" pain receptors. That's why you hear of stories where people get shot or stabbed and don't notice until they see the blood.
Whenever Tim releases a dart or arrow I'm always very confident that animal is mortally wounded. That's the trait of an outdoorsman we all should aspire to have as well.
Due to the fat it causes the belly to hang while it's stand. This causes the fur on is back to stand up which makes it appear bigger than it actually is

"even fight" ??? wtf are you talking about get in there with two knifes if you want a fair fight. and why tf would it matter if its fair or not? rule number one is dont cause unnecessary pain... drowning a bear in its own blood is unnecessary. dude is a sadist. clean shots thats what every hunter wants to see. but he gets glee out of watching it run away, tracking it down, finding it and waiting for it to die from its injuries.

Yea. I agree. I'm by no means a Peta member.. But I do believe if you are going to kill something ( ANYTHING ) to kill it with respect and be quick.. It looked like the bear took quite a while to finally die.
Yall act like the bear would kill you "Quickly and ethically". It makes sense to not want to torture these animals but you gotta realize that they couldn't give a single fuck about that back in the day. Pain is inevitable, just kill em in under a minute.

I myself have used the smaller blow guns with the wire type darts to take small game and doves and I'm still impressed ! I don't hunt or eat bear and I'm not interested in trying but I also wouldn't have the brass balls to sit ten feet from a bear without my 454casull
Steve, you have some points I agree with, like human population but I'm sure we'd disagree with the solution. As far as hunting you are misinformed. The only reason there are any large animals left in North America is because of hunters and our conservation efforts, look up the facts on that. I recently bought a house and moved to the smoky mountains and all the people in my community seem to be in a bear hunting club, lots of bear hunters, seems like there shouldn't be any bears right? I have an automatic deer feeder in my back yard and in the five months since we've lived here, we've had 11 different black bears in the yard. I don't mean we've seen a bear 11 times, there have bean 11 separate bears at my feeder, (my daughters have names for them all). Clearly the state game biologists that come up with bag limits know what they're doing, if it weren't for hunters and the money we spend on licenses there wouldn't be any bears, there weren't may black bears left 100 years ago, hunters and our money have brought them back. Most anti hunters have the opinion that we're all blood thirsty poachers, that is the opposite of reality, if we killed indiscriminately we would soon run out of game and couldn't be hunters any more.
Also Steve, world population is exploding because first world countries give aid to third world countries. K selective people that take care of their kids aren't adding to the population, it's the R selective humans that shit out as many bastards as possible that are adding to the problem.
@Steve Matherson I can barely read your comment Steve (you may want to consider using some periods beyond just ellipses), but I think I get what you're saying. Most of it is absolute nonsense. First of all, I'm a hunter. So if you want to go ahead and discard everything I say, go ahead. Let me explain to you what happens without predators, because that's what hunters are. We are not natural predators, that's true, but we are predators nonetheless. I personally hunt elk in Colorado. Without elk hunters controlling the population of elk, the population would explode, leading to starvation due to lack of food sources. You know how you were talking about the human population growing too fast? Same thing would happen. As far as moving to the territory of the animals, yes, that's true. I can only assume that you exists somewhere on this planet, and therefore you are living in the territory of many species of animals. If you're going to berate someone for doing that, move to somewhere without animals, and where animals have never existed. I would caution you against claiming you know how many bears this man has seen, since you don't live in his back yard. If you think you can guarantee that there haven't been that many bears (especially given that his daughter has named them individually, and by inference can identify them), you're mistaken. I've known many hunters, and the vast majority of them are far more respectful of wildlife than the average person. Until you spend some time with some of us, stop thinking you know everything about us. As far as White Rhinos, you've got your story wrong. First, the last male northern white rhino has died, yes. There are two females still living, and there are ongoing attempts to get them pregnant with the genetic material from the male. He did not die because of poachers, he died because he was 45 years old. The White Rhino, which is the species of which the Northern White Rhino is a subspecies, is in a "Near Threatened" status, and the population is increasing. As far as your arguments on the evils of man, I saw a video of a pride of Lions that attacked a group of Cheetahs, killed them, and then left them to rot. They were getting revenge for the Cheetahs killing a lion cub in their pride. Hunting is destroying, yes. Not hunting destroys more. Deal with it.
Anti hunting people: using a gun isn't sportsmanship. It's weak and cowardly Tim: ok I'll use the most challenging weapon possible, a blowgun from 15 feet away Anti hunting people: that's barbaric and unethical and doesn't kill the animal instantaneously. Use a firearm next time.
Devils advocate here I don't think hunting is bad but ill try to give their logic: While shooting an animal with a semiautomatic gun (people do it not all hunters but their are some irresponsible ones that dump mags) it at least has a high chance of outright killing an animal, so if you have to, then use something that will get the job done fast. I do think that animals should be hunted with the most leathal option available so I can get why people really don't like the idea of a dude hunting with a bliwdart gun when he has access to firearms. Also some of you fellow bow hunters really need to practice more or have a buddy with a rifle cause God damn some of tall are awful shots. Saw a vid not too long ago of a guy bow hunting a deer and he missed vitals twice before hitting the heart. One arrow went into the gut and the other he managed to send through the hind leg.
@@GiskardRevenlov No I totally understand. I don't bow hunt either. If you go to any hunting video basically you'll see some crazy people saying stuff each of those things. Which ultimately just shows they don't want people to be able to hunt period

@@cirrus_wind9775 you’re actually completely right I definitely don’t blame anybody hunting out of necessity. I sort of assume based on what the other commenter said that they are unnecessarily cruel so that’s why I said that. And yeah even if it’s to keep from starving it is shitty to not do things as humane as possible
@@jameslahey6358 I can agree with you there. But in the African tribes defense, they don't really have a much more humane way to kill hippo other than spears and bows because that is all they have. But the way they kill hippos is pretty gruesome.
It is sad to see a beautiful creature die. You're an empathetic person, and that's good. While it is difficult, the glory of the kill and establishing yourself as the apex predator are important things that aren't understood immediately by an outsider. Good men should be prepared to kill or be killed.
Fishing With Bottles , Actually, blowgun accuracy isnt that hard IF you practice!! I used them a lot as a kid hunting rabbits, squirlls, even knocking sparrows out of the sky. This man is totally correct, IF one PRACTICES it comes naturally. We used street cleaner flat wires sharpened on the sidewalks & foam rubber for the fluffs & electric conduit pipe for the blowguns. Long darts for bigger game & short darts for flying birds. Commercial ones hadn't been invented yet so we "Improvized" Bored kids & long summers between school made our whole neighborhoods kids blowgunners. Some of the older guys made darts from long nails & wrapped 3/4 inch masking tape around the hammer end til it fit the pipe & killed the crap out of the rattlesnakes w head shots. We had rabid feral cats running about infected from the fleas on the local sick groundsquirlls. Blowguns ended that problem very quickly. Made poison darts by spraying the tips w hairspray & rolling them in dried rattler venom. A second coat sealed the dried venom on the darts end & when the cats were hit anywhere the hairspray dissolved & released the venom into the cats. They didnt run far. Old indian trick.
What makes this interesting is not so much that such a small dart was able to kill the bear (the dart is, after all, much larger than a rifle round) but rather that the hunters' lungs were able to provide the force to drive that dart clean through the bear from 12 feet. I guess it is "momentum" (heavy projectile), an extra sharp blade, and precision of aim that enables this feat. Certainly it can't be velocity!
There is NO way this is more ethical than a high power rifle. I'll stick with my .45-70. I understand the thrill of a challenge, but I don't want that thrill to come at the price of making the animal suffer any longer than it has to. I respect the animals that feed me.
Shaun Renew exactly. You want to kill your target as quickly as possible, both so it doesn't needlessly suffer and so it doesn't decide to make you suffer while it bleeds out. Good call on the .45-70 btw, my rifle of choice as well, although mainly just for protection in bear country.
I agree with both of you guys as well. Cool that he wanted the challenge and I understand everyone likes a challenge but my 45-70 has done the trick everytime and they don’t make it past 5 yards from where the shot made impact. No reason to make them suffer.
@@estebanchiadote.9174 someone should stick a dart in his armpit and see if he feels pain and for how long! Nothing wrong with hunting but a quick clean kill is always the best way-much the same as how it SHOULD work when dealing with the inland robbery dept
Hunting for fun is the stupidest thing a man can do. and especially not making the kill as quickly as possible. I don't see any reason to sport hunting unless an invasive animal is involved

Exactly this is topical example of a individual with complex of inferiority that is trying to fix it by hunting for fun.... Luring an animal with 50lb of food and shoot it from 10 feet away....Alfa man job!

@@bt70a9 the first hour after the occurrence of a traumatic injury, considered the most critical for successful emergency treatment. but I have a feeling you already knew that and dismissed it.
But the real reason why he said it felt no pain is because it was a perfect shot to the heart, essentially it drowned in its own blood. The bear most definitely felt anxiety and stress, but it wasn't in an immense amount of pain. No whining, quiet death.
A statement for non-hunters would be helpful, such as, it was a known problem bear that he was hired to euthanize, or, X number of bears are permitted to be taken each year because culling is necessary because blah blah blah. This is a missed opportunity to educate a wider audience about the ethics of hunting bear, if that's your position.
i don't know, i think there is something wrong with him holding a dead bear in his arms and saying ''what a beautiful creature''. I mean is it more beautiful now that he killed it than when it was alive a few minutes ago?
@@RR-ds4sd Big difference between hunting, and torturing/killing pets there bucko. Getting a direct shot to the heart or any major artery will kill anything within minutes or even less time than that. What your seeing is a dead animal's body moving around due to the release of ATP in its muscles, as well as nuerons firing sproadically post mortem. Make the same shot on a person to the heart and jugular you'd see the same result, they'd be dead with blood everywhere with there body spazing the fuck out.
@@RR-ds4sd Did I say it was painless? I stated it was fast. Obviously inflicting a lethal wound is going to be met with pain unless if its a headshot (Which is instant death). A humane kill is a kill that doesn't prolong suffering, and while you may be witnessing movement post mortem, that is not indicative of suffering. An animal or person tends to move and thrash around, even when its brains are blown out.
@@jdubflylo hunting is hunting. Whether you do it for fun, food, or both, there really isn't any wrong way to do it as long as its ethical which really differs on who you ask.

Xavier yes but if you miss a head shot even slightly it can end in a painful death or just a deformity or wound where as if you aim for vitals if you miss the heart you can hit the lungs if you miss the lungs you can hit the liver is you miss the liver you can hit the intestines all of which will kill the animal quickly and a spear head only makes that more easy to hit and a quicker death due to proficient blood loss
Gaming KnockeR nothing has been proven so stop bullshitting it’s just if you aim for vitals if you miss the heart you can hit the lungs if you miss the lungs you can hit the liver is you miss the liver you can hit the intestines all of which will kill the animal quickly and a spear head only makes that more easy to hit and a quicker death due to proficient blood loss
I'll never understand "Man I've always wanted to kill a ____" followed by " Man, what a beautiful creature" and then smiles around the carcass. Don't get me wrong, I respect the hunt, but don't pretend that the thrill isn't the priority here and that some "nature appreciation" shtick is. People who take THIS much pleasure in Hunting concern me, it's beyond appreciation for the craft.
Hunters in general care more about the environment than any city slick liberal like yourself. Hunters are much more in touch with earth than you will ever be.

The only people who haven’t held a gun before in this comment section is the dumbass vegans who think killing an animal for food is just as bad as killing any human.
Could someone explain to me why this video is ok to show yet Shaun on “Mouse trap Monday” gets videos taken down because a mouse gets killed in a trap?
Not really a fan of sport hunting, because I already view humans as being the apex predators. That being said, that blow gun skill was on point. I didn't know blow darts could pierce a ribcage til now.
I agree, I can understand hunting deer, people actually eat the deer meat. But I don't really hear of folks eating bears, wolves and things like lions and elephants. To just kill something just to kill it with no intentions on eating it just seems wrong to me.
@@Baconatorz the fuck? K so I'm from alberta and up here people eat bear, cougar, wolf, moose, elk, deer, and antelope In Africa people do eat lion alot of those "trophy hunts" end up feeding poor villages and those hunters pay thousands of American dollars to kill that animal which is 10s of thousands of dollars over there so it stimulates their economy
It's a black bear it does not want to engage humans in any circumstance also black bears don't eat people this is a harmless bear really and rarely causes any accidents
@ツ sure I realize that. they are promptly ended tho ..which is the point here. "You think those caged animals were killed without pain?" at least in my own country, yes
animals harvested in the wild tend to have lower levels of so called stress based hormones like adrenaline and cortisol in their meat compared to animals that haven been warehoused for the supermarket butchery purpose.
@ジ "If you’re a vegan this comment has nothing to do with you but literally almost everyone complaining eats meat" if you took the time to comprehend my post ..im not against hunting. im for weapons who end them as quickly as possible and more importantly.. have consistent accuracy. in these clips with idiots who hunt with revolvers, blowguns and bows you only get to see the success shots. the fck ups are deleted, and there is a lot of them . people don`t bring these weapons to war for a good reason^^
Never ceases to amaze me, people bitch about using modern weapons to hunt with, how "easy" it is. But then when someone uses primitive weapons to hunt with, now it's "cruel and unusual". There is nothing "easy" about what he's doing, though I'm not sure I would do anything like this, I'm not going to judge harshly. Exsanguination isn't particularly fast, but not overly cruel and death is NEVER going to be pretty or sanitized for purposes of glorification. I just watched Randy Newberg kill a wild Bison with a bow...took 8 minutes to bleed out, though that animal never acted hit. Takes a long time for that much blood to pour. Not many haters on that channel.
Well Steve, do you hate Nature? Nature has always approved of hunting and death, w/o it, life itself would be impossible! Predation and death every second from soil to air and everything in between...this is how energy flows. Or maybe you prefer the version by that Nature hater, Walt Disney. He wasn't happy with Nature as it is, and tried to improve upon it. Yes, that's another variety of Nature hating.

@@MrAcuta73 Yes but unneeded or painful death in the modern world is a bad thing. I have nothing wrong with hunting. None at all but hunting in a way that causes such fear and pain is inherently cruel. Hunting should be done with a gun and with the intention to kill the animal without too much suffering.
Killed a really small one too. And I’m just curious where exactly you hunt since most states do not allow baiting or hunting over bait but that’s what I’ve seen here mostly
two little tricks I've picked up in my years in the woods; 1. A really effective and efficient way of sharpening a blade/arrowhead/blowdart in the field is to use a miniature disposable nail file. they're cheap, lightweight, come in multiple grits and tiny enough to fit into even a little altoid's tin "survival" kit. 2. The quickest and most effective means I've found for stripping bark from branches is with a potato peeler. arrowmaking, self-bows, bark cordage, all become an absolute breeze with this simple, humble and cheap little tool.
Well there is a difference here hunting from a tree well covered And hidden Still there is 50-50% that the bear charges And Than its Good night but again a hunters main responsiblity is to make the kill as fast as possible respecting the animal They hunt By avoiding it to have as much pain as possible Thats the different beatvin a hunter And a killer
I remember watching your videos dreaming one day i could do the same, Here i am 6 years later and doing exactly the same primitive hunting. Love your videos tim!
@@jevydaartist6705 i read where a guy said his favorite gun to shoot a moose with was a 22. hed shoot it in the lungs and they are so big they dont know what happened. lungs fill up with blood and they drown and you dont jave to track it.
Idk about “no pain” it probably wouldn’t flinch so hard and start running if it didn’t feel pain, plus it took it a while to die so that doesn’t seem very painless
This just demonstrates the fact that Black bear are not any more difficult to kill cleanly and quickly than a white tail deer if you know what you're doing. Well done Tim! Thanks for another great hunting video, much appreciated...
as a vegetarian (not a vegan) myself, i watched this as i am interested in weapons, the use and effectiveness, and it is an interesting video. i love to shoot as a sport and i am in no way a greenie bleeding heart peacenik, but i am not a hunter and wouldn´t be able to, i just like animals too much and it is hard to watch for me. i will not pretend that hunting isn´t part of nature and human history, and as long as the hunted animal is processed afterwards, who am i to complain. enjoying the challenge, thrill and excitement i can understand, also makes for a more proficient hunting. but if the animal is just left to rot in the woods afterwards, i find that to be disrespectable to the animal. but i don´t know what tim wells does with his game. i sure hope they get processed and eaten, otherwise it would be a real pity and sad. did i dislike the vid? no, and i don´t know enough about tim wells to put out a judgement here. but nontheless in defense of vegans: they sure do follow up their words with their actions. something not alot of people do.
he chose to use a weapon that would make it bleed longer and die slower. I think the "wow what a beautiful creature" was simply a front... not his true thoughts. the hunters I know have a simple rule. Dont make it feel more pain than necessary. ... and this dude choses to spear it in the lung instead of simply putting a bullet through its brain. thats sadism.
@@underarmbowlingincidentof1981 He chose to use a weapon that also give the animals significantly more evasive opportunity than hunting with a rifle. The shot has to be up close and perfect. By the way, how do you think animals die in nature? You think someone comes along and gives them a morphine drip?
@@smirking8457 "evasive opportunity" ??? Bro what? He threw a spear at an unsuspecting bear. Who tf cares about what a chance the animal has? What is so difficult to understand? I am genuinly at a loss because for me "if you have to kill an animal do it as quickly and painlessly as possible" seems like a no brainer. why disagree? I am genuinly interested to hear reasons for chosing the more painful option. and no... making it an even playing field is not a reason because thats just dumb. I mean shit. Thats like bringing your sick and old cat to the vet to get it euthanized and they get out a knife because "in nature it would also be painful"... like wtf... why make it painful on purpose? Please tell me...
@@underarmbowlingincidentof1981 Yes, evasive opportunity. In his videos, there are plenty of moments when animals just don't like the feel of the situation and scurry off long before he can even attempt a throw. Because the throw has to be almost perfect, within a very tight window. Look how long it took him during his grizzly hunt, if he had a rifle he would have just shot the first bear that came along. Factory farming is the "quickest and most painless" way of slaughtering meat - but many consider it far less ethical than hunting, which objectively is a more violent and drawn out death (when large game gets lunged with a rifle, it still takes quite a long time to bleed out).. Wound channels from slicing (broadheads and spears) bleed out much faster than wound channels from tearing (bullet penetration/expansion).
@@smirking8457 Who cares about evasive opportunity? When you are hunting you don't think "oh this isn't very fair for my prey". Making the deaths longer and more painful for the sake of giving them "evasive opportunity" is mental. What is wrong with shooting the first bear? Make it quicker and less painful for the bear... I don't see anything wrong with that. The only reason to use a more primitive weapon is to make the process longer and more enjoyable for yourself which is really weird. mate if factory farming was painless then we wouldn't have a problem with it... the fact you believe its "quick and painless" is mind boggling. It aint quick and it aint painless... factory farming is one of the worst places an animal could die in. Its a slow process filled with fear. if you have to end a life, do it quickly. its not a fair playing field, so no reason to pretend it is. evasive opportunity is irrelevant. human beings have the capability of mercy and when someone willingly goes against this then that says a lot about a character.
Not ethical man and actully pretty fucked up, 3 minutes is a hell of a long time. How would you like if your last moments were chocking on your own bloody? Would have been about 3 seconds with a slug to the heart
@@xPRODIGYxGAMER All true man. The hunter in the vid obviously has a huge ego and clearly dosent care about the beautiful animals he hunts to give them them a clean death.
Go watch animals eat each other alive, this seems pretty merciful, I don’t want to sit and watch my ass get eaten because it’s the most tender meat until I’m a half corpse that finally dies. We are the most merciful hunters on the planet you flowers
not really when there is a huge pile of food in front of you that the bear doesnt have to fight for... animals almost always choose the path of least resistance

Now THIS is bear hunting. More than sportsmanlike. No firearms, just a spear, a blowgun, proficiency with both and set of big brass ones. He could've easily become the prey but he kept his cool and waited patiently for the killing shot to present itself. Salute, Tim.
Bears like lions are one of the few species that still see us as potential prey. I don't know anything about dangerous wild animals, but often I hear from people that lions fear humans and when they see humans they run the other way. Watching this video makes me think that is a lie, the bear seems pretty comfortable enough to go and grab a bite while the human is next to the food. Why aren't bears afraid and run the other way? After so many generations of hunting I would think bears would learn to avoid humans. I'am also amazed by his accuracy and his skill. I would like to watch an all "primitive" recreation hunting like the first generation of men used to hunt without modern technology.
@@F.A.-- I am not gonna talk down to u and i respect ur views. I would like to say that only polar and some male american black bears view humans sometimes as prey. In actuality bears will avoid humans on sight. The news headlines that do mention them attacking people inflate their ferocity. As a statistic proven only 2-5 are killed annually by bears. Still take precautions while around bears as they tend to be very annoyingly persistent. As a rule black bears prefer retreat rather than confrontation and will predate whether their natural food supply is somewhat diminished while grizzlies are strictly defensive in attacks.
You mentioned the bear not being able to figure out what the flashlight was, well bears are extremely smart. And this bear knew what that flashlight was, he was actually looking to see what size batteries the flashlight takes.

Let's be real. This thing died choking on its own blood. Maybe that's considered relatively humane. But I feel using words like "painless" are doing a disservice to what happened to this creature. This wasn't painless. This was an agonized bear gasping for air until it slipped from existence. Just own it, don't downplay the damage.
edit: To clarify, as people keep posting... I'm not condemning hunters. I'm not even condemning this hunter, this hunting style, or this particular blowdart kill. My point of contention rests on the dishonest language used to describe what happened here. He described it as "painless". He's downplaying the suffering of an animal that has an identical nervous system to us. I just want him to own the reality of the situation.
I'm not qualified to talk about what constituties an ethical or unethical kill. I just want us to use honest language. Nothing more, nothing less.

I have built, shot, and hunted with blowguns for fifty years. I do not hunt big game, either with a blowgun or any other weapon. Mostly I target shoot and take the occasional rabbit or squirrel for the pot. I also built and designed a blowgun to shoot and retrieve bullfrogs. (My favorite game. Yum!) But I can say without fear of contradiction that a well-designed blowgun and dart will kill anything a .22 short round will kill, in about the same amount of time and circumstances. As a word of caution, I had a cousin who accidentally shot and killed himself with a .22 short. That said, I don't like any of the commercial guns or darts. They all have some pretty grave limitations. My Cherokee ancestors would have chuckled at them. Please, NEVER SHOOT ANYTHING LIVING WITH ONE OF THOSE SMALL BORE WIRE DART 'HAT-PIN' GUNS. They are for target shooting only.

Why do you assume I'm ignorant? As far as sadistic, the jury is still out.
Steve, you have some points I agree with, like human population but I'm sure we'd disagree with the solution. As far as hunting you are misinformed. The only reason there are any large animals left in North America is because of hunters and our conservation efforts, look up the facts on that. I recently bought a house and moved to the smoky mountains and all the people in my community seem to be in a bear hunting club, lots of bear hunters, seems like there shouldn't be any bears right? I have an automatic deer feeder in my back yard and in the five months since we've lived here, we've had 11 different black bears in the yard. I don't mean we've seen a bear 11 times, there have bean 11 separate bears at my feeder, (my daughters have names for them all). Clearly the state game biologists that come up with bag limits know what they're doing, if it weren't for hunters and the money we spend on licenses there wouldn't be any bears, there weren't may black bears left 100 years ago, hunters and our money have brought them back. Most anti hunters have the opinion that we're all blood thirsty poachers, that is the opposite of reality, if we killed indiscriminately we would soon run out of game and couldn't be hunters any more.
Also Steve, world population is exploding because first world countries give aid to third world countries. K selective people that take care of their kids aren't adding to the population, it's the R selective humans that shit out as many bastards as possible that are adding to the problem.
@Steve Matherson I can barely read your comment Steve (you may want to consider using some periods beyond just ellipses), but I think I get what you're saying. Most of it is absolute nonsense.
First of all, I'm a hunter. So if you want to go ahead and discard everything I say, go ahead.
Let me explain to you what happens without predators, because that's what hunters are. We are not natural predators, that's true, but we are predators nonetheless. I personally hunt elk in Colorado. Without elk hunters controlling the population of elk, the population would explode, leading to starvation due to lack of food sources. You know how you were talking about the human population growing too fast? Same thing would happen.
As far as moving to the territory of the animals, yes, that's true. I can only assume that you exists somewhere on this planet, and therefore you are living in the territory of many species of animals. If you're going to berate someone for doing that, move to somewhere without animals, and where animals have never existed.
I would caution you against claiming you know how many bears this man has seen, since you don't live in his back yard. If you think you can guarantee that there haven't been that many bears (especially given that his daughter has named them individually, and by inference can identify them), you're mistaken.
I've known many hunters, and the vast majority of them are far more respectful of wildlife than the average person. Until you spend some time with some of us, stop thinking you know everything about us.
As far as White Rhinos, you've got your story wrong. First, the last male northern white rhino has died, yes. There are two females still living, and there are ongoing attempts to get them pregnant with the genetic material from the male. He did not die because of poachers, he died because he was 45 years old.
The White Rhino, which is the species of which the Northern White Rhino is a subspecies, is in a "Near Threatened" status, and the population is increasing.
As far as your arguments on the evils of man, I saw a video of a pride of Lions that attacked a group of Cheetahs, killed them, and then left them to rot. They were getting revenge for the Cheetahs killing a lion cub in their pride.
Hunting is destroying, yes. Not hunting destroys more. Deal with it.
Anti hunting people: using a gun isn't sportsmanship. It's weak and cowardly
Tim: ok I'll use the most challenging weapon possible, a blowgun from 15 feet away
Anti hunting people: that's barbaric and unethical and doesn't kill the animal instantaneously. Use a firearm next time.
Truest comment ive read on this video

Devils advocate here I don't think hunting is bad but ill try to give their logic: While shooting an animal with a semiautomatic gun (people do it not all hunters but their are some irresponsible ones that dump mags) it at least has a high chance of outright killing an animal, so if you have to, then use something that will get the job done fast.
I do think that animals should be hunted with the most leathal option available so I can get why people really don't like the idea of a dude hunting with a bliwdart gun when he has access to firearms.
Also some of you fellow bow hunters really need to practice more or have a buddy with a rifle cause God damn some of tall are awful shots.

Some of the older guys made darts from long nails & wrapped 3/4 inch masking tape around the hammer end til it fit the pipe & killed the crap out of the rattlesnakes w head shots. We had rabid feral cats running about infected from the fleas on the local sick groundsquirlls. Blowguns ended that problem very quickly. Made poison darts by spraying the tips w hairspray & rolling them in dried rattler venom. A second coat sealed the dried venom on the darts end & when the cats were hit anywhere the hairspray dissolved & released the venom into the cats. They didnt run far. Old indian trick.

Dave Jan your comment sounds like it came from a classic piece of literature; truly an amazing story.
Dave Jan man thats cool bet ur kids will be better off than most. U should be proud
Its coldsteel bigbore :p this blowgun is crazy .
What makes this interesting is not so much that such a small dart was able to kill the bear (the dart is, after all, much larger than a rifle round) but rather that the hunters' lungs were able to provide the force to drive that dart clean through the bear from 12 feet. I guess it is "momentum" (heavy projectile), an extra sharp blade, and precision of aim that enables this feat. Certainly it can't be velocity!
they are light as a feather, its just about a small surface area and its razor sharp so it can penetrate easily
There is NO way this is more ethical than a high power rifle.
I'll stick with my .45-70.
I understand the thrill of a challenge, but I don't want that thrill to come at the price of making the animal suffer any longer than it has to.
I respect the animals that feed me.
Shaun Renew exactly. You want to kill your target as quickly as possible, both so it doesn't needlessly suffer and so it doesn't decide to make you suffer while it bleeds out. Good call on the .45-70 btw, my rifle of choice as well, although mainly just for protection in bear country.
I agree with both of you guys as well. Cool that he wanted the challenge and I understand everyone likes a challenge but my 45-70 has done the trick everytime and they don’t make it past 5 yards from where the shot made impact. No reason to make them suffer.
I agree
You right!!!, is not ethical!!!!..and hunter too!!!

@@RR-ds4sd Big difference between hunting, and torturing/killing pets there bucko. Getting a direct shot to the heart or any major artery will kill anything within minutes or even less time than that. What your seeing is a dead animal's body moving around due to the release of ATP in its muscles, as well as nuerons firing sproadically post mortem. Make the same shot on a person to the heart and jugular you'd see the same result, they'd be dead with blood everywhere with there body spazing the fuck out.
@@RR-ds4sd justified the result by getting what he wanted "kill a bear" and his self flattery of unique hunting skills.?
@@RR-ds4sd Did I say it was painless? I stated it was fast. Obviously inflicting a lethal wound is going to be met with pain unless if its a headshot (Which is instant death). A humane kill is a kill that doesn't prolong suffering, and while you may be witnessing movement post mortem, that is not indicative of suffering. An animal or person tends to move and thrash around, even when its brains are blown out.

@@brumm0m3ntum94 clearly u have no idea of how death spasms work and u just wanna defend that guy. its the nerves that fire not the bloody "cells"
Never ceases to amaze me, people bitch about using modern weapons to hunt with, how "easy" it is. But then when someone uses primitive weapons to hunt with, now it's "cruel and unusual". There is nothing "easy" about what he's doing, though I'm not sure I would do anything like this, I'm not going to judge harshly.
Exsanguination isn't particularly fast, but not overly cruel and death is NEVER going to be pretty or sanitized for purposes of glorification. I just watched Randy Newberg kill a wild Bison with a bow...took 8 minutes to bleed out, though that animal never acted hit. Takes a long time for that much blood to pour. Not many haters on that channel.
@Steve Matherson hunting trophies are cool
Well Steve, do you hate Nature? Nature has always approved of hunting and death, w/o it, life itself would be impossible! Predation and death every second from soil to air and everything in between...this is how energy flows. Or maybe you prefer the version by that Nature hater, Walt Disney. He wasn't happy with Nature as it is, and tried to improve upon it.
Yes, that's another variety of Nature hating.

@@MrAcuta73 Yes but unneeded or painful death in the modern world is a bad thing. I have nothing wrong with hunting.

two little tricks I've picked up in my years in the woods; 1. A really effective and efficient way of sharpening a blade/arrowhead/blowdart in the field is to use a miniature disposable nail file. they're cheap, lightweight, come in multiple grits and tiny enough to fit into even a little altoid's tin "survival" kit. 2. The quickest and most effective means I've found for stripping bark from branches is with a potato peeler. arrowmaking, self-bows, bark cordage, all become an absolute breeze with this simple, humble and cheap little tool.

When you hate something you can't leave it alone. Sad and pitiful to be them.

as a vegetarian (not a vegan) myself, i watched this as i am interested in weapons, the use and effectiveness, and it is an interesting video. i love to shoot as a sport and i am in no way a greenie bleeding heart peacenik, but i am not a hunter and wouldn´t be able to, i just like animals too much and it is hard to watch for me. i will not pretend that hunting isn´t part of nature and human history, and as long as the hunted animal is processed afterwards, who am i to complain. enjoying the challenge, thrill and excitement i can understand, also makes for a more proficient hunting. but if the animal is just left to rot in the woods afterwards, i find that to be disrespectable to the animal. but i don´t know what tim wells does with his game. i sure hope they get processed and eaten, otherwise it would be a real pity and sad. did i dislike the vid? no, and i don´t know enough about tim wells to put out a judgement here.

Factory farming is the "quickest and most painless" way of slaughtering meat - but many consider it far less ethical than hunting, which objectively is a more violent and drawn out death (when large game gets lunged with a rifle, it still takes quite a long time to bleed out).. Wound channels from slicing (broadheads and spears) bleed out much faster than wound channels from tearing (bullet penetration/expansion).
@@smirking8457 Who cares about evasive opportunity? When you are hunting you don't think "oh this isn't very fair for my prey". Making the deaths longer and more painful for the sake of giving them "evasive opportunity" is mental.
What is wrong with shooting the first bear?
Make it quicker and less painful for the bear... I don't see anything wrong with that. The only reason to use a more primitive weapon is to make the process longer and more enjoyable for yourself which is really weird.
mate if factory farming was painless then we wouldn't have a problem with it... the fact you believe its "quick and painless" is mind boggling. It aint quick and it aint painless...
factory farming is one of the worst places an animal could die in. Its a slow process filled with fear.
if you have to end a life, do it quickly. its not a fair playing field, so no reason to pretend it is. evasive opportunity is irrelevant. human beings have the capability of mercy and when someone willingly goes against this then that says a lot about a character.

Now THIS is bear hunting. More than sportsmanlike. No firearms, just a spear, a blowgun, proficiency with both and set of big brass ones. He could've easily become the prey but he kept his cool and waited patiently for the killing shot to present itself. Salute, Tim.
Bears like lions are one of the few species that still see us as potential prey. I don't know anything about dangerous wild animals, but often I hear from people that lions fear humans and when they see humans they run the other way. Watching this video makes me think that is a lie, the bear seems pretty comfortable enough to go and grab a bite while the human is next to the food. Why aren't bears afraid and run the other way? After so many generations of hunting I would think bears would learn to avoid humans. I'am also amazed by his accuracy and his skill. I would like to watch an all "primitive" recreation hunting like the first generation of men used to hunt without modern technology.

@@F.A.-- I am not gonna talk down to u and i respect ur views. I would like to say that only polar and some male american black bears view humans sometimes as prey. In actuality bears will avoid humans on sight. The news headlines that do mention them attacking people inflate their ferocity. As a statistic proven only 2-5 are killed annually by bears. Still take precautions while around bears as they tend to be very annoyingly persistent. As a rule black bears prefer retreat rather than confrontation and will predate whether their natural food supply is somewhat diminished while grizzlies are strictly defensive in attacks.
